Ptolemy locates Myos-Hormos at 3°25’ of latitude (380 km) North of Berenike, which leads to Hurghada. The Periplus Maris Erythraei indicates that this site is at 1800 stadia, (330 km) from Berenike, which would lead near Safaga. However, modern authors agree to locate this port 8 km North of Quseir on the West side of the road and a jetty made of amphorae was found by Peacock & Blue. Napoleon’s team identified it “Vieux Qoséïr”. Roman fort at Qasr Hadie and road to Nile valley |

Pliny is most accurate as he indicates that there is no shadow at noon on the day of summer solstice, which is the definition of the tropic located at 23°26’ of latitude. The present latitude of Berenike is 23°56’ and it is still a port today. With Hellenistic fort road to Nile valley |
| 3581 | Roman port of Berenike Troglodytika, Berenice, inside the gulf of Lepte Akra, Acathartos Kolpos, Foul Bay | Medinet el-Haras, 4 km South of Bender el-Kebir inside the gulf of Ras Banas and on the Tropic of Cancer.

The Periplus Maris Erythraei locates Ptolemais at 4000 stadia (740 km) south of Berenike, which corresponds to Aqiq |

| 3614 | Alalaei, Alalaiou insulae | Dahlak Kebir village on the Dahlak islands, with many rock-cut cisterns on Dahlak Kebir |
| 3615 | Saba | Massawa? Ptolemy locates Saba at 50’ of latitude North of Adulis, which could be Massawa at only 20 nautical miles |
| 3616 | Land of Punt? Pount, Ta Netjer, Taneter, Pwenet, Pwene, Pouen, Ophir?? | probably somewhere in East Africa, possibly in the area of the Afar people, between Adulis and Djibouti, on the location of the ancient D’mt (Da’amat) kingdom and close to the Kush kingdom and its gold mines, where they could also find silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks. Other possible locations for Punt are Mundus-Mosylium and Opone (Somalia) |
| 3617 | Adulis, Adoulis, Utulis, port of the Axoumites, on R Taranta | Zula, on wadi Haddas. The Periplus Maris Erythraei locates Adulis at 3000 stadia (ca. 550 km) south of Ptolemais inside a south facing bay, which corresponds to Zula. Pliny locates it at 5 navigation days from Ptolemais, which leads to more or less the same location. It may be noted that Ptolemy is widely mistaken when locating it at 40’ of latitude North of Dire, leading near Assab, 200 km further south. The site of Zula is now widely accepted by modern authors. |
| 3618 | Gabaza, port of Adulis, Diodorus insula | Island located in the bay of Zula and and now included into the continent under the name « Galala Hills » 3.5 km SE of Zula. Not to be confused with Perim island bearing the same ancient name |

| 3623 | Antiphilou Limen, Antiphilus portus | Hanfileh, Anfile bay, NW of Thio, Tio |
| 3624 | Port of Colobonalsos, Cape Kolobon | Tio at Ras Anrata? Ptolemy locates Colobon at 2° of latitude North of Adulis, which does not correspond to any cape or promontary, but Strabo locates it very close to Antiphilus portus, hence Tio might be the right location |
| 3625 | Edd, beach sheltered from south | |
| 3626 | Mersa Dudo | |
| 3627 | Berenice of Saba | Bera’isole in Bahar Assoli, Bahir Assoli Bay |

| 3630 | Eumenous Alsos, Port of Eumenes | Unlocated between Saba and Arsinoe, possibly near Halba Deset |
| 3631 | Arsinoe epi-Dires | Ras Dumeira at Rahayta? Ptolemy locates Arsinoe at 20’ of latitude South of Dire, which corresponds to the lagoon of Godoria on the North coast of Djibouti near 12°09’ of latitude. He nevertheless mentions it North of Dire on his list … which makes some authors think the site is at Ras Dumeira. Monfreid’s Raheita |
| 3632 | Cape Dire, Deire, Berenice epi-Dires, Orea, Tytis insula possibly in this area | Ras Siyan, on the west side of Bab el-Mandeb, the Gate of Tears. Cape Dire is located in front of Cape Acila (Cheikh Saïd in Yemen) as Strabo indicates. It is also just in front of the six islands mentioned by Strabo. Ras Siyan is a former island now connected to the mainland, but before that, it was a member of the “Seven Islands” (Sawabi islands). It provides good shelter against the eastern waves prevailing in this area. The place called Fagal is at 12°27’ of latitude and gives us a reference for locating other ports mentioned by Ptolemy. |
| 3633 | Diodorus insula, Adanos Duo, Sadanus insulae | Mayyun, on Perim island, and the second island (“Duo”) may have been the Cheikh Saïd peninsula now connected to the mainland |

| 3673 | Iambia Kome? Leuke Kome? | Yanbu al-Bahr |
| 3674 | Charmuthas, Charmute | Sharm Yanbu? 15 km NW of Yanbu. This hypothetical area is close to Diodorus’ description: > the total circumference is 23 km (close to his 100 stades); > the central island might be now connected to the mainland on the NE side where siltation occurred over time, near the outlet of the wadi ; > the total area might have been between 2000 and 3000 ha (ample space for his 2000 ships) ; > the entrance is 300 m wide (more than his 200 feet = 60 m) but this depends much on coral growth which may have varied in time and with urbanisation. |
